Now before you get perturbed with me, remember I'm the student seeking knowledge ! Most of this thread is way over my head, so I have to shoot in the dark on ocassion. And I'm sure I speak for everyone in thanking you for you're participation here. I hope this thread becomes a reference for the function of the infamous OVP.!

So, with the mindset of the OVP as a resisted fuse, what would be the results if it wasn't there at all? Assuming there would never be a spike in voltage.
